George Jones Writing On The Wall Lyrics

Writing On The Wall Lyrics

She was holding back the tears

As I packed up the last few years

And said, "I'm tired of being so tied down"

I'm sure the kids will understand

That daddy's making other plans

I grab my bags and I was freedom bound



And then I saw the writing on the wall

It said, "We love you daddy most of all"

There in purple crayons, scribbled knee high in the hall

I saw the writing on the wall



When the [Incomprehensible] wore off, of being free

Their memories started haunting me

I headed home as fast as I could go

My keys still fit that same ol' door

But no one lived there anymore

And that tender message made my tear drops flow



And then I saw the writing on the wall

It said, "We love you daddy most of all"

There in purple crayons, scribbled knee high in the hall

I saw the writing on the wall, I saw the writing on the wall
